Q: Hello 5i Team

I own Chevron and ExxonMobil in my US$ denominated RRSP. These are the only US$ oil and gas stocks in my RRSP account.

My US$ RRSP is structured as a large cap dividend aristocrat account.

My cost basis per share for CVX is US$115.00 and for XOM is US$80.00. Current yield on CVX is 5.6 % and on XOM is 6.4 %

As I cannot harvest capital losses in a RRSP account, is there any benefit in consolidating these two holdings into one stock? Which company has the better potential for growth long term (5 year or greater). Or should I do nothing and continue to receive dividends until the stocks return to their former highs?

Thanks

Q: We are often reminded that one should not try to time the market, and that it is time in the market that counts. But would you be in favour of an investor re-weighting to more defensive positions if one is worried there is a "correction" on the horizon, for example if the Delta variant explodes Covid numbers, there is a gov't policy or interest rate change, an external shock with China, etc, ? If one was going to make that change, can you pls provide 10 names that currently would be more defensive? Thank you for your very excellent service.

Q: I have some new funds to add 2 positions. I wish to do so in some USA companies. Even though the US is not your primary focus here, and you are not aware of the make up of my portfolio, can you pls provide your view on which 2 of these 4 names you would consider best and why? Looking for a long term hold, with dividends being less important. Thank you for your very excellent service.

Q: Good morning Ryan, Peter, and 5i Team,

Given the recent earnings miss and resulting downward momentum of WW shares, are you still confident that the thesis for investing in Medifast holds water? If not, might you suggest which one of your favourite US growth stocks (any sector) that you might currently prefer over Medifast? Thanks for your great service!

Brad
